EPHRAIM HARDCASTLE: Prince Harry’s unfortunate fancy dress appearance in Nazi uniform is highlighted in new episodes of The Crown

Prince Harry's unfortunate dressing up in a Nazi uniform in 2005 is highlighted in the new episodes of The Crown, released today.

Imelda Staunton, as Queen, asks Tony Blair for advice and asks, 'Where's the judgement? The swastika bracelet, two weeks before Holocaust Memorial Day?'

Jonathan Pryce as Prince Philip adds: 'His father (Charles) made him muck out pigs as punishment.' Philip calls the costume rental shop and tells them what he thinks, adding, “The uniform was wrong. The German Afrika Korps never wore swastikas.'

Will Harry, who admits to fact-checking the show, give Netflix a notebook of corrections?

Saira is also an honorary consultant at Imperial's NHS Trust. “Reach out to people and talk to them about things you're interested in,” she responded when asked for her advice for students. 'You never know where a conversation will lead.'

Dawn French clearly didn't consult Debrett's etiquette guide while making plans for her Christmas party with 30 friends.

“That's a lot to think about and when they arrive I'm already overwhelmed,” she explains.

“So I take a bath and everyone understands. Obviously not during the main meal, but shortly afterwards. They actually find it quite antisocial, but they have now accepted this from me because it will never change.'

Maybe next year, Dawn, you can have the turkey and ham flowing on board from the tap.

Wearing 1960s corsets for her role as stunning secretary Joan Harris in Mad Men, Christina Hendricks (pictured) has kitted out for her role in Apple TV+'s The Buccaneers.

“Period underwear is second nature to me,” she says of the corsets for Edith Wharton's story.

'But the Victorian bustle and enormous skirt were much more challenging to wear than the corset. You take up so much space and you feel trapped because if you make a sudden move you could trip.”

And does she still get leftovers from Mad Men? “Not much,” she says. 'Some days I get £21.'

Valedictorian Benjamin Zephaniah, who accused Cambridge's Trinity College of 'being out of the closet' after it withdrew its offer of a fellowship in 1986 because no one wanted to offend the King Charles graduate.
